SUMMARY:Fifteen Dogs
DESCRIPTION:“A must-see\, even for cat people” – Toronto Star \nOver drinks at a local watering hole\, Greek gods Apollo and Hermes wager that any animal would die unhappy if granted human intelligence. For their experiment\, they choose man’s best friend – fifteen of them. After “the change”\, the dogs marvel at their gift of language and revel in their newfound mindfulness. But curiosity turns to unrest when clashes over status\, freedom and conformity threaten the pack. \nAs the gods meddle from above\, the dogs wrestle with the complications of their new world order\, often with devastating\, and sometimes hilarious consequences. Will they roll over and accept their fate or stay true to their natural instincts? \nSit\, stay and treat yourself to this modern-day fable\, based on André Alexis’s global bestselling novel.

SUMMARY:Waiting for Godot
DESCRIPTION:A dystopian Laurel and Hardy” – The Guardian \nIs it possible that two seemingly homeless men represent all of humanity as they wait for someone – or something – to give their lives meaning? As Vladimir and Estragon wait for the mysterious “Godot”\, they banter about minor complaints like the tightness of their boots\, to major questions like the meaning of existence. Torn between hope and uncertainty\, this hapless pair hosts an array of strange visitors while dutifully waiting for their promised salvation. \nDeeply influential and iconically enigmatic\, Samuel Beckett’s comic\, absurdist masterpiece asks the simple yet profound question\, “What are we doing here?” Today\, Vladimir might be talking to us when he reassures his pal\, “Tomorrow\, everything will be better.” \nRoyal MTC is thrilled to stage one of the most significant plays of the 20th century with this revival of Shakespeare in the Ruins’ brilliant production. Indoors\, this time!

SUMMARY:Cyrano de Bergerac
DESCRIPTION:“Cyrano may be the most romantic\, tragic love story to withstand the test of time” – Stage and Cinema \nA gifted wordsmith and legendary duelist\, Cyrano de Bergerac disarms with a flick of a sword and his rapier wit. Unrivalled in battle\, Cyrano loses all swagger when it comes to matters of the heart. In a world that judges a book by its cover\, the poet with “the nose” has sworn off finding a lover. Loyal to a fault\, Cyrano smothers the sparks of his own attraction to Roxane to woo her on behalf of a fellow soldier. Will he rip off the mask or forever deny his own heart? \nShowcasing swashbuckling duels\, witty repartee and a love triangle for the ages\, this contemporary adaptation will have us rooting once again for the noble Cyrano.

SUMMARY:fareWel
DESCRIPTION:“We’re only going to have one chance at self-government. If we’re lucky.” – Robert\n“And when have we ever been lucky?” – Rachel \nThere’s a cry for change on Partridge Crop Reserve. The welfare cheques are late – if they’re coming at all – the Chief is pushing his luck in Vegas (again) and a restless desperation has led to rumblings of self-government. There’s a lot at stake and establishing a new system without real change feels like building a house on a crumbling foundation. Can this spirited group of ordinary Joes ditch the fareWel for good and take control of their lives? \nCrackling with Ian Ross’s trademark wit and warmth\, this dark comedy about life and politics on a Reserve was awarded the 1997 Governor General’s Award for Drama. \nPlease note: the nickname of the character Sheldon is being revised by Julia Ross for this and future productions.
